I came across this Randy Pausch lecture while YouTubing today... and what a reminder it was to live life to the fullest. It sounds cheesy, but if you are having a hard time comprehending what the point of life is - this lecture will help you. I remember when Randy passed away in 2008 and shortly following I spent a good amount of time consuming his thoughts and lectures and found him to be truly inspirational. I'm glad I ran into him again on the internets... and this time have a bloggish video reminder memory bank tool to share and remember his story forever.
Randolph Frederick “Randy” Pausch (October 23, 1960 – July 25, 2008) was an American professor of computer science and human-computer interaction and design at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Pausch learned that he had pancreatic cancer in September 2006, and in August 2007 he was given a terminal diagnosis: “3 to 6 months of good health left”. He gave an upbeat lecture titled “The Last Lecture: Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams” on September 18, 2007, at Carnegie Mellon, which became a popular YouTube video and led to other media appearances. He then co-authored a book called The Last Lecture on the same theme, which became a New York Times best-seller.
Pausch died of complications from pancreatic cancer on July 25, 2008.

I intentionally left my iCommunicationWithTheOutsideWorldDevice at home for a two day snowmobiling trip somewhere outside of Nowhere, Colorado.
No internet – No texts – No calls.
I was forced to focus on the relationships of who was actually there.
Never felt so good in my entire life.
Need proof of what is becoming of our brains ability to function in social overload…?
“Trying to drink from a firehose of information has harmful cognitive effects. And nowhere are those effects clearer, and more worrying, than in our ability to make smart, creative, successful decisions.”
“The research should give pause to anyone addicted to incoming texts and tweets. The booming science of decision making has shown that more information can lead to objectively poorer choices, and to choices that people come to regret.”
“If you think you’re a maximizer, the best prescription for you might be the “off” switch on your smart phone.”

Some very interesting analogies and thoughts presented via messengers, comedians and a little bit of sappy emotional music.

“When you win… you go into this smoky room with the 12 industrialists capitalists scumfucks who got you in there. And your in this smoking room and this… little screen comes down. And a big guy and a cigar says – “roll the film”. And it’s a shot of the Kennedy assassination from an angle you’ve never seen before.
And then the film – the screen goes up and the lights come on and they go… “Your the new president – any questions?”"
Classic find Robert Fulton.
Working out a nice deal with Blackbox Case to offer the first ever Hydle branded product.
I’ve always been on the lookout for something eye catching and durable to carry my MacBook Pro from mobile edit airstream to airstream… and I finally found it. Best of all — Blackbox Case is located right here in my home town of Golden, Colorado.
With future products + accessories + finishes on the way… I literally love the “branding” potential of this product and am excited to finally offer a product to share with my friends.
Enjoying this handy small trick from MacLife.

Traditionally Microsoft is not in my bag. But Crispin Porter + Bogusky nails this ad. Makes me rethink if my dumb-phone experiment is about to be over.
Genius.
“After mapping humans’ intricate social networks, Nicholas Christakis and colleague James Fowler began investigating how this information could better our lives. Now, he reveals his hot-off-the-press findings: These networks can be used to detect epidemics earlier than ever, from the spread of innovative ideas to risky behaviors to viruses (like H1N1).”
This TED talk will drastically change my future.
